Abstract
This paper focuses on the study of the elastic couplings and
the warping effects on the behaviour of composite beams.
The study is restricted to the case of thin walled
multilayered composite beams and the modifications to be
introduced in the case of thick or moderately thick beams
are noticed in the end. The semi-analytical model presented
herein allows the analysis of different kinds of elastic
couplings, among which extension, shear, bending, torsion
and prevented warping. The numerical results which are
presented and compared to experimental tests, 3D
computations and other analytical models, show the
efficiency of our approach and the improvements which are
carried out.
